Support for the maternal milk bank
FFBT supports the maternal milk bank of the DRK-Blutspendedienstes
It is the renaissance of a 100-year-old idea: the ideal food for newborns is women's milk. If the mother herself is not yet able to breastfeed, donor breast milk is needed - but there is not enough of it. Since April 2019, women's milk donations have therefore been collected, portioned and pasteurized at the Frankfurt Institute of the German Red Cross Blood Donor Service. The establishment of this women's milk bank was supported by the Frankfurter Förderverein zur Bekämpfung von Tumorerkrankungen (FFBT) e.V., among others. A change in the statutes enabled the FFBT to participate in this important institution.
